  • Oak Hall Care Home, Haslemere
Oak Hall in Haslemere, Surrey, opened its doors to new residents in November 2018, following an extensive refurbishment. It offers luxurious surroundings for 55 residents, all of whom enjoy their own en-suite rooms. Some of the rooms can accommodate couples.

In keeping with other homes within the group, Oak Hall will deliver exceptional levels of care in convivial surroundings. Restaurant-style dining is a key feature, alongside a dedicated Health and wellness team who will be running a wide range of well being activities to keep residents active in mind body and soul.

Oak Hall will offer a range of care options: residential, convalescent, respite and specialist palliative care are all available, each with the aim of providing dignity and respect through programmes tailored to the needs of the individual.

Oak Hall lives up to its name with a large oak-panelled entrance hall; oak staircase and balustrading with many further oak features throughout the building. The original interiors of the principal rooms remain little altered: marquetry inlay to some floors, plastered ceilings, stone and marble fireplaces, marble floors, heraldic stained glass and tiled bathrooms.

Long-term nursing care - Respite Care - Convalescence following an operation - Specialist palliative care.

On arrival, no interaction from manager, receptionist very nice. My mum is independent, just needed meals and eye drops, after cataract surgery, four times a day. My mum had to ask repeatedly for her eye drops, no set times were given. She wanted her meals in her room, they were cold, very poor amount
and was often hungry. On one of the shifts, eye drops were given at 7 pm and then only a get of 1 hour, 8:20 pm! I have taken my mum out a week early as she was so upset. The manager was very dismissive. We were charged £3,000 for this poor care. Very dissapointed.

Reply from Jane McAuley, General Manager at Oak Hall Care Home

Thank you for your praise regarding the warm welcome you received from our reception team. I am sorry to read that Mum’s stay did not meet your expectations. Mum was prescribed eye drops 4 times a day which were given. Mum chose the times she wanted her eye drops. Whilst our nurses advised Mum to have them 6 hours apart Mum decided on the timings to suit her daily routine. There was one occasion during Mum's stay that she informed us her soup was lukewarm. We served a hot portion straight away and apologised. Mum often spoke to staff about how lovely the food was at Oak Hall, it’s disappointing to hear your feedback after Mum had gone home. I visited Mum nearly every day of her stay. We both hail from the same county and had some lovely conversations about the area invoking happy childhood memories for both of us. Each time I visited Mum I asked how was her stay so far. Mum didn’t share any concerns with me so it’s disappointing to hear your feedback after Mum had gone home. Thank you

Our father moved into Oak Hall Care Home and was with you for four months. We cannot thank you enough for the wonderful nursing care and support that you gave him. He was welcomed into your family, wholeheartedly, and felt very relaxed and happy. His health improved and so did his well-being. We, as
a family, also felt very supported and welcome.
We thank you all so much for giving our father a wonderful place to feel safe and loved.

My husband entered Oak Hall for two weeks of respite care. We were very pleased with every aspect of his stay. He naturally missed home but was extremely happy with his experiences. He came home in a better physical state than going in. We are grateful to all the staff for their care and profession.
They were delighted to deal with him and us. It's a lovely building in a gorgeous setting. Hopefully, we will be able to repeat it.

Reply from Jane McAuley, General Manager at Oak Hall Care Home

Thank you for your review. Your husband was a delight to support during his very short stay with us; we almost kept him! He and you are welcome back any time at all; we hope you will both visit us again, as you are part of our ever-growing family now. We have a garden party on 5th August, please come and join us for that and say hello it would be fantastic to see you both. Thank you again for taking the trouble to review our home and our wonderful team of hard-working staff.

I can reiterate the positive comments made by others.
There is a good schedule of activities which energetic staff run and encourage participation, I feel my relative's communication and cognition have improved since they started living here eight months ago.
The food always looks good and the portion
sizes must be sufficient as one relative is gaining weight. They both say they enjoy the food and there are plenty of choices and a good balance on the main menu, with additional options available.
The room is lovely with a great view. The only negative is that when things need fixing it sometimes takes a bit longer than expected.
I have worked in the NHS for thirty years and my overall opinion is that the staff are genuinely very caring and attentive to my relative's needs. As a result, although it was a big upheaval for them, they say they are very happy to be at Oak Hall Care Home. Thank you for your care.

Reply from Jane McAuley, General Manager at Oak Hall Care Home

Thank you for your review. Your relatives are a wonderful addition to our family and a pleasure to support. They really enjoy the activity sessions, especially the seated exercises. I am sorry you feel repairs take a bit longer than expected; sometimes, this is for sourcing parts. I am glad they are happy at Oak Hall and are enjoying the food. Thank you again for your review. Kind regards.

Oak Hall Care Home is always presented well and kept clean and tidy. The reception staff are friendly, welcoming and helpful. The staff/carers/nurses try and answer my questions and try to understand my worries and concerns. When they have time, they spend time listening and answering my questions.
The variety of carers can be tiring to me as I have to keep explaining my needs. The food is very good and the addition of a drinks machine is good for my visitors.

Reply from Jane McAuley, General Manager at Oak Hall Care Home

Thank you for your review. All care homes have found it difficult to recruit staff recently. I am pleased to say we have taken on many new staff, who are currently going through the recruitment process and will join the team very soon. We also have a fantastic electronic care planning system, which means you should not need to explain your care needs to the staff, as I know you find this tiring. I'm so glad your family like the new coffee machine; it's been a very welcome addition to the Bistro. Thank you again for your review, kind regards.

All staff always put the residents first and always listen and do their best under often difficult circumstances. Everyone is keen to offer the best service and when at times a different requirement is requested the staff work hard to implement it as soon as possible. The home works hard with its communication
to all shareholders.

My father has been a resident at Oak Hall Care Home for almost two years now, and throughout that time, he has thrived. He suffered a stroke several months ago and lost the use of his right side but with physiotherapy and the continued efforts of the well-being team and carers has made a remarkable
recovery. I cannot thank the team at Oak Hall enough for striving to help him achieve his maximum potential.

What a fantastic review. Dad is a pleasure to support. He has worked hard to get his mobility back and has a real gusto for life. He lights up the room when he walks into it, and everyone enjoys spending time with him. Thank you for your review and the support you also give to the team; it is much appreciated. Thank you.

My partner's father has been in Oak Hall for over 18 months. Apart from recovering from an original hip fracture hence his admission, but has also had a stroke a few months ago but has subsequently been nursed back to health. He has been cared for in a superb way and is so happy in his environment.
It's a relief to us all that his care has been so good and more importantly, he is so happy.

My sister lacks the ability to speak or call help, so is very vulnerable. However, she is regularly checked and kinds care assistants feed her with practice. Her drug regime is checked and if I call help, for example, to change her incontinence pads, it swiftly arrives. The room is well equipped with
a special bed to change her position. The food is appropriate to her needs. One gets the impression that the care team and manager do care for their residents. As with any care home they are often short of permanent staff, but the agency workers are polite and cheery.

Reply from Jane McAuley, General Manager at Oak Hall Care Home

Thankyou for your kind words. Its a pleasure looking after your sister and I know you find it difficult seeing her as she is now but she loves seeing you.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.686)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.686) out of 10 for Oak Hall Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 48 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 47 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Care Home is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.686 for Oak Hall Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (428 Excellents x 5) + (106 Goods x 4) + (21 Satisfactorys x 3) + (3 Poors x 2) + (5 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 563 Ratings = 4.686

  • b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5').

    The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Oak Hall Care Home is based on 47 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4

    • ii) 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the registered maximum number of service users in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Care Home registered for a maximum of 50 service users has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 55 registered maximum number of service users is 11, which has been reached with 47 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
